E Architectural, Landscape Architectural, Engineering and Land Surveying Firms Only (CCNA) RFO No. 14 -07 -02 Force Main Rehabilitation Design -Build Project, Construction Administration. Based on development and approval of a Design Criteria Package (DCP), advertisement of that package, and selection of a Design -Build Team (DBT), served as project manager and engineer to provide construction administration services for the City's 4.5 million dollar force main rehabilitation program. The project included plan and permit package review during the design development phases, as well as construction administration tasks, such as shop drawing review, pay application review, contract _ clarification, onsite observations, and 3 __ contract close -out. The project included extensive coordination with impacted stakeholders and permitting agencies such as Department of Environmental Protection, Department of Environmental Resource Management, Miami -Dade Park and Recreation, Miami -Dade Water and Sewer Department, City of Miami, Florida Department of Transportation, and Miami -Dade School Board. The project also included assisting the City in collecting 3.5 million dollars in grant and loan funding through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and State Revolving Loan (SRL) programs. Main Wastewater Pump Station Rehabilitation Project. We developed construction documents for the rehabilitation of the City's main wastewater pump station. The project included analyzing the existing pumping and i © ®ry control equipment to evaluate present operating parameters and to develop a rehabilitation approach to increase system efficiency, reduce system maintenance, and provide a reliable, redundant pump station to better serve the City. Existing - - shaft driven wastewater pumps were converted to submersible pumps for use in a dry pit area and the complete control system was upgraded. The preliminary - - design phase focused on pump performance, pump mechanical integrity, control system operation, and modeling system pressures. The control system was evaluated in terms of present operational problems, redundancy, electrical code compliance, and feasibility/cost analysis for a Citywide SCADA system. The final design phase included the development of construction plans and technical specifications to detail pump station equipment rehabilitation, control modifications, installation of Variable Frequency Drives, Motor Control Center (MCC), upgrade to the electrical service, Citywide SCADA system, and plans to demolish the existing equipment. The design approach required construction coordination and planning to keep the existing station in service during the rehabilitation and service upgrade process. The scope of work also included preparation and submittal of documents and design data for permit applications, opinions of probable construction cost, bidding services, and construction phase services that include attendance at project meetings to assess the project schedule and contractor progress, review of shop drawings for conformance with the contract documents, contract administration such as review of applications for payment, interpretations and clarifications of the contract documents, onsite observations to observe contractor performance, project close -out to confirm the contractor had fulfilled all contract obligations, and review of project record drawings. Utility Relocations on 79th Street Causeway Eastern Bridge. Based on a bridge rehabilitation project performed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), we developed construction documents to relocate an existing 10 -inch water main and an existing 8 -inch force main on a 79th Street Causeway. The City's existing utilities conflicted with the proposed FDOT rehabilitation process. The plans and construction approach were developed to minimize down time of both utilizes. The relocation process included the design of alternate mounting brackets for higher utility elevations and modifications to each connection point. The scope of services included the development of the construction plans, technical specifications, contract RFO 14V) OYM21A4,05u=q Isles Be Cor urm Pmess l Sernces." Kimley» )Horn
